I built Maña Maps: a free browser map editor with AI (GeoJSON/KML/Shapefile export)

Hey r/QGIS , I’m an indie devloper launching Maña Maps — a lightweight online map editor focused on speed and simplicity. The project is open-source.

Sample image

What it does

  • Draw points, lines, and polygons
  • Import/export GeoJSON, KML/KMZ, CSV, and Shapefile (.zip)
  • Measure distances
  • Switch basemaps (map/satellite/3D globe)
  • Use AI prompts for map actions (e.g. “add a point in Paris”)
  • Share maps on read/wirte mode (collaboration tools)

Why I made it
At work we need to share maps frequently, and switch between shapes, kmz and web viewers. I wanted something that opens instantly and lets you go from idea to exported map in minutes.

Built with
Leaflet + MapLibre + Firebase + plain JS.

Would love feedback on

  1. First-run UX (anything confusing?)
  2. Import/export reliability with real-world files
  3. Features you’d want next

If you try it, I’d love brutally honest feedback 🙏
